No chance dobson will come to us. He knows the score between us and rovers and will have better options elsewhere. i was told today he's joining wigan for the rest of this season before moving to another club next year

if only you had stumped up the cash 5 years ago it could have been a totally different story and saved about 5000 half back threads on here

He would have got injured in his first game and never played again anyway.

I agree he would come to us if the offer was right, but he would be looking for a substantial increase over any other offer before accepting an Fc contract. I don't reckon he would deliberately antagonise the r+w's just for the sake of a small financial gain, he would want a significant differance before putting pen to paper.

Even if we put the rovers issue to one side, who would you sign for (assuming all monetory offers were roughly in the same ballpark); Saints, Wigan, Wire or FC? Unfortunately for us, we're very much also rans in a field of that nature.

Or maybe we simply didn't have a quota space

Urban myth. he had to come before the end of the season or would't have got another visa and the only club who could offer him a spot was rovers. wigan and Hull both wanted him for the following season but couldn;t accomodate him mid season due to quota and cap restrictions

Frank Pritchard, Dobson, Sa and Scott Taylor all signed for next season is what I've heard.

Where have you got Pritchard from? No talk of him going anywhere from the bulldogs sites? Plus, he's still signed up, a big part of our leadership and on a relatively big contract (550k aud or 300k gbp putting him in the top 2 or 3 players in superleague...)
